"Find out anything interesting?" Jerry asked as he picked Skye up in front
of the library.
"It could be. Apparently a brunette by the name of Brenda showed up here a couple of years ago. She has been living in 'sin' with some man who is a best friend of someone from the Wedig clan. I have to tell you. Those old ladies, who also by the way serve on the church board, are in a tissy. But for all their outrage, not one could come up with the name of the guy. They think the woman worships the devil because she never shows up for Mass. Small town life, you have to love it."
"His first name is Max. The guys down at the bar have mixed reviews about the relationship. On one hand, the woman is a beautiful brunette. They think he is one lucky son of a gun for sharing a bed with such a beautiful woman. On the other hand, those that have met her don't understand why he puts up with her. The woman in question feels that she is slumming and insults his friends on a regular basis. She will pick up and leave for the city for a few weeks at a time. She runs up his credit card bills. She buys clothes with designer labels yet she can't seem to find something appropriate to wear to a small town fair. Well, actually the guys have mixed reviews on that."
"All that, and we still aren't any closer to finding her."
"I wouldn't say that."
"All we have is a first name. How are we going to find them on that."
"His best friend's name is Chris. Apparently Max lives next door."
Skye gave Jerry a brilliant smile. "We got her." Skye flipped through the phone book. "Here it is. 25652 County Road G.
Just then, the phone rang. "Jerry here."
"Hey Jerry, how is it going on you're end?"
"We think that we have located her. When are you going to get down here?"
"I'm actually not that far away. I gave the guy who was following me the slip. Then I turned around and started following him. It was quite an interesting site for a while. Then he got a phone call and took off. He just turned into a driveway on County G."
"What's going on?" Skye asked.
Jerry looked over at Skye. "Jax turned the tables on the man that was following him. Jax followed the guy to a house on County G."
Skye cursed. "They're waiting for us. They are setting up shop right on her doorstep."
Jerry turned back to the phone. "Jax, Skye says that it's a trap."
"Jerry, Alcazar just turned into the driveway. I think that they are expecting more than just me to show up."
"If we are going to get Brenda, we are going to need a distraction."
"I don't think that's going to be necessary."
"I can't see who, but a man and a woman are getting in the car. Just a moment Jerry, I need to get in a better position or they will be able to see me when they come out of the drive." Jax hung up.
Jerry looked over at Skye. "It looks like Alcazar is moving Brenda and Max off the property in anticipation for us to show up. Jax is going to call us back."
"That's Alcazar. We are going to have to do something about him. For myself I don't mind so much. I've lived looking over my shoulder for twelve years. But I don't think that I could handle it if he hurt one of my babies."
"I've been thinking about that. You know him better than anyone else. The man must have some weak spots somewhere."
"Perhaps, but they're not easy to get too."
"No one is impenetrable."
"Alcazar has two main enemies. But he keeps them at bay by keeping them occupied fighting each other. Every time it looks like they might form a truce, Alcazar arranges a new misunderstanding."
"So these two groups are to busy fighting each other to ever be a serious threat."
"But if they were ever able to settle their differences and joined forces, their combined organizations could easily overpower Luis Alcazar. I actually have some files back at the lake house on them. I've come up with several different scenarios to get them to start talking again. But getting them to put aside their differences long enough to take Alcazar on, would probably take an act of God."
The phone rang again and Jerry picked up. "Jerry, they moved them just a few doors down. It shouldn't be a problem getting to them."
"This could be a trap."
"I don't think so. They're setting a trap up at the other house. Not long after the other two left, another car came in. Physically the woman looks like Brenda, but the accent is all wrong."
"Just wait a minute. You got close enough hear her talk? What the hell do you think that you are doing out there?"
"Relax Jerry, I'm fine. But they did leave someone at the other house. We need to find a way around them."
"I'll be right there after I drop Skye off somewhere safe." With that Jerry hung up.
"What do you mean drop me off somewhere safe? I'm coming with you."
"Skye, be reasonable. You're pregnant. You can't be risking those babies."
"Are you forgetting? I'm the only one here that Alcazar wants alive and in one piece."
"Be that as it may, something could go wrong and you could be hurt by accident."
"So I will sit in the car. I'm going. If you try to leave me behind, I'll rent a car and go by myself."
Jerry looked at Skye for a moment. "Okay, but I have to stop by the hotel and pick up a couple of things to create a distraction. Alcazar left a man behind at the house Brenda was moved to."
"Fine. Let's go."
When the hotel, Jerry hurried in with Skye not to far behind her.
"What do we need."
"There's a case in the closet. Can you get it?"
Skye went to the closet and opened the door. Suddenly she felt herself being gently shoved in. The door closed solidly behind her. Skye swore, then turned around and started pounding on the door. "Jerry, let me out. Let me out now."
"You know I can't do that. You said it yourself. If you were out here you would rent a car and follow me to the house. I won't let you get in the line of danger. Don't worry. I'll be back as soon as I am done helping Jax."
Skye pounded on door some more. "Jerry, I swear to God that I will never forgive you for this." Skye listened as the door to the room closed. "I can't believe that I fell for that. I should have seen that coming. I did the same thing to AJ once. This can't be happening. Someone has to come by. A maid will let me out. Who am I kidding? The maid has already been here and gone. Jerry and I are probably the only guests at the hotel at the moment. I swear that when Jerry gets back, I'm going to kill him."
--
"Hi Jerry. Did you have any problems getting Skye someplace safe?" Jax asked as he embraced his brother.
"I left her at the hotel. We better get this done quickly and get back there. She is going to be extremely upset with us." Jerry replied.
"Oh great. This will be the first time that I have seen her in months and she is going to be mad at me for not letting her put herself in danger."
"UH, yeah, that too."
"Jerry, what do you mean, that too."
"Well, if I had just left her behind, she would have gotten a car and come after us. She does know where we were going."
"Jerry what did you do?"
"It was for her own good. In a few more months, she will be giving birth to the next generation of the Jax family."
"Jerry?" Jax growled out in a warning tone.
"I locked her in the closet."
Jax's expression was a mixture of worry and amusement. "You're right. We better not spend much time here. We can't leave her in that closet for too long. Damn, I'm glad that I'm not in your shoes. She is going to be so pissed with you when you let her out."
"Well, actually, I was sort of hoping that you would do the honors."
"Chicken."
"Self-preservation. Who knows what she will have come up with by the time that we get back there. So how are we planning to do this?"
"It shouldn't be hard. They just left the one guard. He isn't there to guard them. He is just making sure that they don't jump in the car and take off while they are setting their trap. We can circle around to the backside of the house without disturbing him. We should be able to walk the back door without Alcazar's guard catching on."
"That sounds good. Let's go."
Jax and Jerry quickly circled around to the back of the house and let themselves in the back door. Once inside, they heard Brenda and some other man talking in a neighboring room.
When they entered the room, Jax couldn't believe his eyes. "What the hell are you doing there?"
--
"Boss." The word crackled on the phone.
"I gave you one simple job. Keep them on that farm. What more instruction could you possible need?" Alcazar swore. The guard in question was the son of distant cousin. He assigned the boy over there because it was out of danger and there was very little he could do to screw it up. If he hadn't owed his cousin a few favors, he would have washed his hands of the boy a long time ago. When this was over, Alcazar was considering buying some land and sending the boy there to housesit.
"They're here."
"I certainly hope they are. Even you should be able to handle keeping them on that farm."
"No, I mean the Jacks brothers. They are here."
Alcazar was silent for a moment as he swore under his breath.
"Sir, what do you want me to do? Are you going to send more men or do you want me to try to keep them here too."
"Is Skye with them?"
"No. She isn't in the house with them and their car at the end of the road was empty."
"So they left her somewhere." Alcazar considered this for a moment.
"Sir? What are you're orders? Do you want me to take them out?"
"No. Leave them in the house. They came to talk to Brenda, let them. The longer it takes them to get their answers, the better. I want you to cut the tires on the cars by the house so they can't use them."
"What about the car by the road?"
"Leave that one to my people. Just cut the tires and make you're way back here. I have an idea."
--
Jerry looked at the stranger with Brenda's voice, then back at Jax. "Who is she?"
"Carry something or other. I dated her a couple of times after Brenda's accident."
"Jax, you are such an idiot." The woman said.
"How exactly are you involved with Alcazar? I assume that you have something to do with this scam Alcazar is running."
"Scam? What scam would that be?" The woman said coyly
"The one where he is apparently trying to make everyone believe that Brenda is still alive."
She laughed. "You are still chasing that fantasy. Oh this is so wonderful. After all this time, there could never be any better revenge than you here right now."
"What the hell did I ever do to you?"
"Among other things, you didn't recognize me and love me for who I am. You love my perfect face. Well, I'm sorry that this face isn't perfect enough for you, but the doctors couldn't exactly put it back the way it was after it had been broken so badly." Brenda screamed.
"Brenda?"
"What? Didn't you see that accident? How could you think that I could come out of that looking like I did? I went face first out of a window for. It took extensive operations to get me to look pretty again."
"I didn't know. I didn't know it was you."
"How do you think that made me feel? You said that you felt nothing when I kissed you after that date. Hell, you apologized. I was still the same woman. I just had a different face. You didn't recognize me. You didn't recognize my kiss. I even wore the same perfume in hope that it would make you realize it was me. And you know what? Nothing happened. Nada."
"I'm sorry that I hurt you, but I didn't know."
"Why didn't you? I was the love of your life, or so you claimed. How could you not know that it was me? Don't bother answering that. I already know. You didn't love me. You loved your image of me. You loved playing the white knight. You loved sticking it to Sunny every time that I would choose you over him. But Jax, you never loved me."
Jax was silent for a moment. "Alcazar planted an imposter in Port Charles with your face. Everyone was overjoyed to think that you were alive. Then they were disappointed to find out that she wasn't you. Even though you and I are over, there are a lot of people who care about you that deserve to know that you are alive."
"Why? So they can gawk at me? Pity me for not being beautiful? You should have let that imposter continue to be me in that town."
"You are beautiful." The man by her side said.
She smiled affectionately at him and shook her head. "That's sweet. And when I look in your eyes, I can see that you mean it. But I don't look like I once did. Compared to who I was, I'm just pretty now."
"You knew about the imposter." Jax said accusingly.
"Of course I knew. Who do you think gave Alcazar all that personal information that allowed the woman to pass for me."
"Do you know what Alcazar did to that poor woman?"
"Do you think that I really care?"
"That woman has a husband and child somewhere. But she has been brainwashed so harshly that she can't remember who she is or where they are. That's all you can say? That you don't care? She had her life ripped away from her."
"So did I. Do you think that this was easy? I had to build my life all over again. So don't expect me to feel sorry for her."
"Yes, I can see that you are to busy being sorry for yourself." Jax turned back to Jerry. "I think that we can go now."
Jerry nodded and they left the same way that they came.
--
Skye pounded on the door some more in frustration. It felt like she had been stuck in this dark closet forever. "How long could it possibly take them to get there and back?" Time move extremely slowly sitting on the floor of that closet in the dark. Skye didn't know what time it was, but did know that it was night. There was no longer any light coming in under the closet door. "Jerry is so dead when he gets back. If he gets himself killed tonight before he gets a chance to get me out of here." Skye let that thought go unfinished as a light suddenly came on in the bedroom and shined in under the door.
"It's about time that you got back." Skye shouted. She banged on the door for good measure. "What the hell where you thinking, locking a pregnant woman in a closet without water, food, or a bathroom. I swear when I get out of here, you are so dead, Jerry."
"What took you so long?" Skye said as the door opened and she walked out.
"I'm sorry to have left my lady sitting in that closet, but it took a little time to find you."
Skye's face turned pale at the sound of Alcazar's voice. She turned and saw him leaning against the wall by the closet door.
"But you are absolutely right about one thing. Jerry and Jax are very much dead men." Alcazar said right before she felt a slight cramp in her stomach and passed out.
--
Jax and Jerry quickly made there way back to Jax's car by the road. "We better hurry back to the hotel. Skye is going to be pissed."
"I can't believe you locked her in a closet." Jax said as he opened the door on the driver's side. Before getting in, he paused and looked around.
"What is it?" Jerry asked.
"I'm not sure. It's to quiet. Something's not right."
"Did you see the guard outside the house?"
"No. I didn't."
"Neither did I."
"I know that Skye is waiting, but I think that we investigate."
"I agree."
Jax closed the door and he and Jerry made their way back down the driveway. When they were halfway to the house, they heard a huge explosion from behind them. Jax and Jerry turned around and saw Jax's car engulfed in flames.
"Oh Hell."
"He knows that we are here."
"Skye."
"We need to get back to town, fast."
Jax swore as he saw that the tires on the cars by the house were flat.
"I parked my car by a junk yard down the road. Hopefully, Alcazar's men haven't found it."
"Or put a bomb in it."
"Your car blew up a couple of minutes after you closed the door. If we can't find a bomb, we can always open and shut the door. If the car hasn't gone boom after a couple of minutes, we will assume that it is safe."
"It could be. Apparently a brunette by the name of Brenda showed up here a couple of years ago. She has been living in 'sin' with some man who is a best friend of someone from the Wedig clan. I have to tell you. Those old ladies, who also by the way serve on the church board, are in a tissy. But for all their outrage, not one could come up with the name of the guy.
